 This is diffucult to realize in the dominant graphical user interface paradigm
 (developed in the 70s at Xerox PARC [XXX ref]) in which *pages*
 are shown in overlapping, rectangular, unconnected viewports (windows).
 In this paradigm, following a link can only create a new window
 or replace the contents of the current window.

 Alternatives, such as replacing part of text (XXX antont's reference; w3c link 
scopes),
 are not very popular nor intuitive... [XXXref]
